Exposure: Full sun to part shade. Zone 3. Will perform better if shaded from late afternoon sun.
Soil: Moist, acidic, well-drained soils with high organic content. Cranberries grow in the same type soils as blueberries and should be well mulched and kept constantly moist.
Growth habits: A low-growing, mat-forming, evergreen groundcover to 10 inches. Its delicate, tiny leaves turn an attractive burgundy in winter.
Landscape uses: Excellent native groundcover plant for mountain home landscapes. Interplant as a groundcover under your blueberries. Tiny, evergreen leaves turn burgundy in the winter.
Edible/Medicinal properties: Tart, vitamin-dense fruit that is rich in antioxidants and has traditionally been used to treat urinary tract infections. Makes delicious juice or sauces from the fall fruits or eat them raw for a treat.
